i love watching angels spawn. even if you dont hatch them still makes you feel good that your water is good enough for them to breed in.

how do you tell male and females???
i have the exact same angels and i was told i bought 2 males.......
but they seem to be shaking at eachother and "kissing" with mouths and feelers.........are they spawning? ***? or what lol

I got this pair as dime size juvies so I had no idea what sex they were initially. Mine just turned out to be a M/F by dumb luck. The only obvious differences that I can visually see is that the male has a thinner breeding tube. They do the exact same ritual of shaking at each other that you spoke of prior to egg laying.
:popcorn: <<<<Me watching them while they are:>>>>:nilly:

look at the tubes coming out of them just in front of the anal fins. there is a little tube. the females have a wider, blunter one than the males thinner pointer one.
